I need a small linux Text only version bootable installed on a partition of my hardrive, How can I customize a Linux version like redhat, debian, puppy etc. Please suggest some suitable distribution?

Depends on what you call small and what the purpuse of the installation is. I'd recommend [Debian stable][1] (Lenny) or [Ubuntu-server][2] for server-purposes. A really small distro is [Damn Small Linux][3]. If you just want to play around with a small-as-possible distro, you can try the time-consuming [Linux-from-Scratch][4].

Archlinux, definitely. But it's not programming related.

I am looking for GNU/Linux distribution which works in real mode. I want to install it in virtual machine so I can study assembly. Is there any one who can help me with it ?
There's ELKS, a subset of Linux suitable for the 8086 processor (ie, no memory manager unit needed, real mode only, etc). But I don't think that such a beast will be your best vehicle to study assembly...

I have installed Ubuntu 12.10 leaving Win 7 licensed ver. But again as usual I need to fix so many issues.
This time fan is creating lots of noise. I was looking for the solution and found the below:
sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq < \
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_min_freq
But I read that cpufreq is for cpu frequency. What to do now? I have already executed the command.
What is the solution for my problem of fan sound in Ubuntu 12.10. In win 7, this is not the problem.
I believe you are looking for
fancontrol

Anyone know some image viewers for Linux/Ubuntu
which have faster loading times than the
gimp and firefox which I can install with
apt-get, or which are already on the system.
Fed up of having to wait for these to load,
each time I need to view an image. I need
something fast and jiffy.
I'm also looking for sth I can run from the command line.
Try the "display" command line. apt-get install imagemagick

I need to find an old driver (kernel/drivers/hid/hid-picolcd.c) located into the old kernel 2.6.35.14.
But I cannot find the version on http://kernel.org
I need just this file, or just one file. Is it possible to navigate a chosen version of the Linux kernel?
This guy? http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.35.14/drivers/hid/hid-picolcd.c
This website is pretty good for viewing linux source code:
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.35.14/
Ofcourse you can browse through gitweb of all the different version of the kernel. The file you are looking for is in the kernel git repository for 2.6.35.14
Just click on the version you'd like to see at
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/hid/hid-picolcd.c

like what is X windows,Cygwin,file system
Well, first you have to choose which Linux distribution you wish to use/learn, then you just use that distro's documentation, which normally has allot info.
You can find here some linux beginner lessons: http://www.linux.org/lessons/beginner/toc.html
Finally the best way to learn, besides reading is "getting your hands dirty". Install a distro of your choice and mess with it :)
I think this is a great way to start
